i admire how proactive you have been with learning self defense and i'm saddened to hear about the abuse you have experienced while playing online although it sounds like you really kick butt lol and i do think that more needs to be done to combat this problem, with this thread i was just wondering if people here think the women of india have found a viable solution in arming themselves and it seems like its mostly a no maybe i should have put in a poll |
It wasn't proactive sadly, and one side effect of my experience is empty internet threats don't phase me. One thing I was taught was you empower people by giving their words weight. Think about the person and why what they say affects you or not. Rather than lashing out back at remarks I find people can forget themselves or the meaning of their words in situations. Simply thinking that every person on this forum is a human with whole life can be jarring if you see it as an anonymous place where you're just venting at a screen.
